With the first LHC run expected in 2009, and the first LHC upgrades expected around 2014, ATLAS and CMS are planning for detector upgrades for their innermost layers requiring radiation hard technologies. Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) diamond has been used extensively in beam conditions monitors as the innermost detectors in the highest radiation...

The luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN to the sLHC will increase the radiation dose seen by the experiments by roughly an order of magnitude compared to the LHC. The elevated radiation levels will require the LHC experiments to upgrade their tracking systems with extremely radiation hard silicon detectors, capable of withstanding up to a 1-MeV neutron-equivalent...

Three-dimensional (3D) photodiode detectors offer advantages over standard planar detectors in a range of applications. These include radiation hardness properties for charged particle tracking in SLHC operation, and their advantages for X-ray detection for synchrotrons and medical imaging due to their low charge sharing between adjacent pixels which improves spatial and spectral resolution....
